Medic Media International Pty Ltd offers a range of training aids and healthcare tools for training, emergency care, defence and rescue organisations in Australia.
Medic Media International Pty Ltd supplies Life/Form blood pressure simulators which are useful to teach students to take blood pressure readings. The main advantage is that they enable students to audibly differentiate the five Korotkoff phases. The package includes Life/Form Arm Replica which has an embedded speaker and a hard carrying case. They include a sphygmomanometer and users manual. No stethoscope is provided.
Life/Form blood pressure simulators have a durable, electronic control unit with six AA batteries. Using the control unit, the instructor can adjust the volume/pulse rate and select systolic/diastolic settings. It is possible to preset values for both systolic and diastolic pressures. The calibration process is simple. Students can place the pump cuff on the arm and check the pulse. These lifelike simulators have a palpable radial pulse. A release valve is provided to activate pressure which can be read on the sphygmomanometer. They offer the facility to auscultate Korotkoff sounds using a stethoscope. External speakers are offered as an optional feature.
